This is a mastication unit map document prepared by the State of Utah Division of Wildlife Resources for the BD27-105 Triangle Uplands Mastication contract opportunity. The project involves treating pinyon/juniper dominated vegetation across 1,100.3 base acres with an optional 527.1 acres located in the Triangle Uplands in Grand County, Utah. Services are to be performed between October 9th, 2026 and February 28th, 2027, with the objective of removing trees through mastication using bullhog-type equipment to restore treatment units to a mosaic pattern of varying densities with scattered untreated leave islands. Participation in this Invitation for Bid is limited to prequalified contractors only, and no mandatory site visit will be held prior to bidding; however, potential bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect the site independently. The contract is anticipated to be awarded to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor, and the successful contractor must guarantee pricing through project completion.

The map documentation supports the project specifications by providing geographic detail of the mastication treatment units within the Triangle Uplands area. Funding and pricing terms are contingent upon competitive sealed bidding with no set-asides or incumbency provisions noted. Contractors must maintain pricing guarantees throughout the contract performance period ending February 28th, 2027, and all work must comply with the prescribed treatment specifications outlined in the project scope.
